Chamber Makes A Distinction
So far the board of directors of the Eu
gene Chamber of Commerce has refused to
adopt any resolutions in support of the
"revolt" at Grants Pass against "stop" orders
on construction, They have discussed the
matter thoroughly, and they have reached
a rather interesting conclusion:
"We will not lend the support of this Cham
ber to lawlessness in any form. Protests? Yes!
We will support the right to protest but not
defiance of law."
; This distinction between "defiance of
law" and "protest" is quite important. Ad
mittedly the administration of CPA and oth
er government control agencies has been
very bad. But CPA acts under laws of Con
gress and the Chamber's policy suggests
obedience under protest. In other words the
remedy is to get Congress to change the law.
We think the position of the Chamber is
very sound. Of course, the question might
be asked:
l "At what point does protest run over into
. lawlessness and revolt?"
There is always a shadowland between
che two. In fact, we think it is overstatement
to call the Grants Pass affair actual revolt.
People did get together to defy law and re
fuse compliance, and if this type of action
were to spread it would become revolt. But,
it had the atmosphere of dramatics rather
than revolt. Federal agents still go in and
out of Grants Pass without molestation. The
alleged "crimes" will eventually be passed
upon by courts. (And it is 'our hope that the
courts will recognize the defiance as drama
tized protest rather than serious revolt).
"But what about the effigy hangings of
Bonneville officials in 'darkest Florence'?"
There was absolutely no defiance of law
at Florence. There is no law which prohibits
the lampooning assault on public officials
for their PUBLIC acts (or failures to act).
There is a marked difference between what
happened at Florence and what happened
at Grants Pass. At Florence no law of the
land was involved; at Grants Pass, it is the
law and not just the public servants that
Is attacked.
"How is the defiance of stop orders at
Grants Pass different from bootlegging defiance
of prohibition some years back?"
There is no difference. There, is an abso
lute parallel here. True, prohibition was
flouted, just as any unworkable law will al
ways be flouted. It would be hard to find
any Chamber of Commerce member who
could say truthfully that he never violated
the prohibition law (just as we suspect it
would be hard to find any Chamber of Com
merce member or anybody else who would
not do a little 'hunching' if he had a build
ing to build under present absurd conditions).
But even under prohibition, good citizens
did not go round advocating mass violation
of the prohibition laws or seeking to prevent
the prosecution of the gangsters and boot
leggers. Good citizens do not advocate mass
revolt aeainst CPA or OPA. They shout
their heads off for repeals and reforms.
The Grants Pass episode is simply drama
tic protest, not actual revolt. The famous
Cavemen and other characters of the Jose
phine County metropolis have rung the pub
licity bell again. They have called attention
to a bungle, and we suspect they have had a
lot of fun doing it.
The Eugene Chamber has chosen to keep
its head and make a very nice distinction
by standing clear.

WASHINGTON LETTER
By PETER EDSON
Register-Guard Washington Correspondent
New German Occupation Policy
WASHINGTON, Oct. 21 (NEA) U. S. State
Department directives on policy to be carried out
In Germany by Generals Joseph T. McNarney and
Lucius D. Clay are now being completely revised,
and will be announced soon.
Effect of the changes will be to rewrite com
pletely the directive known as IPCOG 1067 the
Informal Policy Committee on Germany's General
Staff memo No. 1067, approved In April, 1945. Gen
eral Eisenhower carried these orders into Germany
after V-E Day. They laid down the policy which
U S. military government authorities were to fol
low in the American zone and in the Allied Con
trol Council in Berlin.
IPCOG was disbanded a year ago. It was suc
ceeded by SWNCC the State-War-Navy Co-ordinating
Committee of Assistant Secretaries in those
three departments. The job of rewriting 1067 has
fallen on SWNCC, under the chairmanship of As
sistant Secretary of State John H. Hilldring.
Ten-sixty-seven, as it was known, was originally
a negative set of orders. It told what should be done
to de-Nazify Germany, do away with Nazi laws,
wipe out the German government for a new start,
reduce the German war potential.
All those things have now. been done In the
American zone.In addition, there have been free
elections in the three Laender, or states, making up
the U. S. occupied area. Democratic governments
have been elected from the smallest political unit
upward. State constitutions have been drawn up
and will soon be submitted to the voters for rati
fication. Recent Developments Dictate Change
On top of this, there have been a number of im
portant economic developments in Germany. The
four occupying powers have agreed on a standard-of-livlng
level for Germany, based on annual steel
production of 5,800,000 tons--about one-fourth of
Germany's prewar output.
The U. S. and British zones have been unified
the first step toward making Germany self-sufficient
France and Russia are expected to come
into line gradually, thus removing all trade barriers
between zones.
Secretary of State James F. Byrnes has made three
Important declarations on American aims in Eu
rope, changing government policy as the situation
in Germany has developed.
The first of these was a statement of last Dec. 12
on Germany's peacetime economy. It set forth
these four principal objectives: Increase the export
of coal to liberated areas. Settle the German
reparations question. Set up uniform and central
ized control of German finance, transport, and
communications for all four of the occupied zones.
Prevent mass starvation in Germany, during the
past winter.
Other developments which have made necessary
the changing of orders given the U. S. military
government authorities in Germany include two
recent speeches by Secretary Byrnes.
Byrnes' Speeches Outmode No. 1067
Before 150 German officials at Stuttgart on Sept.
8, Byrnes proposed that Germany be reunited tinder
a provisional central government with which a
peace treaty could be negotiated.
On Oct. 3, before the American Club in Paris,
Byrnes made another speech on U. S. foreign
policy in which he brought forward again his pro
posal for a four-power treaty guaranteeing the
disarmament of Germany for 40 years.
These are the public declarations which have
made necessary a revision of IPCOG 1067. Not
maae puDiic are a number of cables from the
State Department to General McNarne-,, directing
changes in policy as new situations have arisen.
All such orders are now being reviewed. A com
pletely rewritten order to the Armv in EnrnnA nfii
result, to govern the American zones until the next
" , . oeveioping a peaceful German nation Is
called for.
